Praise be Allah, Alone! May Allah's peace be upon the last Prophet and upon his family and Companions! To proceed: I have reviewed an article published by (Iqra') Magazine in its issue number (604) released on 22/5/1407 A.H., about a debate between Aristotle and Aristoqan stating: (Nature errs and man corrects) and this general statement has a heinous evil and open disbelief. It is a well­known fact that the philosophers do not believe in the Creating and absolutely Perfect Lord Who plans the affairs of the universe. He also does for a wisdom and leave for a wisdom, for Allah is free from errors in actions and sayings (Glorified and Exalted be He). Due to their lack of belief in the Great Creator, Who is perfect in His Names and Attributes (Glorified and Exalted be He), they attribute the events to nature because of their ignorance and their staying away from what the Messengers (peace and blessings of Allah be upon all of them) brought to mankind. Therefore, it is an obligation not to be deceived by their sayings with regard to theology and legislations because of heir ignorance of them and their lack of faith in them. Undoubtedly, what happens in the world of diseases, accidents, deforming or other things are due to the Will of Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He), and
He has the extensive wisdom and the overwhelming proof, even if creatures are ignorant of them, as He (Glorified and Exalted be He) says:
Certainly your Lord is All­Wise, All­Knowing.
He (Glorified and Exalted be He) also says:
And Allâh is Ever All­Knower, All­Wise.
Furthermore, He (Glorified and Exalted be He) says:
He cannot be questioned as to what He does, while they will be questioned.
This is so because of His perfect wisdom and knowledge. Blessed is His Name and Exalted is He from the claim of the wrongdoers, the disbelievers and the ignorant, and high above is He by great sublimity. In fulfillment of the obligation of giving advice for the sake of Allah and for His slaves, we drew people's attention to this fact. Allah is the Grantor of success and He is Sufficient for us and the Best disposer of our affairs.
May Allah grant us success! May peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and Companions!
